(Bottle 33) Very dark brown-red appearance. Looks pretty with lacings. Unharmonious flavor. Too sweet and with a slightly sour note. I even taste some metal. Sticky palate.

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 elcig (19) - Oliver Springs, Tennessee, USA - OCT 28, 2005
Pours from the bottle a gorgeous coppery brown with a creamy medium light beige head and nice lacing. Fantastic, earthy pungent aromas of fruit and leaves. Sliky smooth flavors of caramel, cocoa and roasted nuts finish with just a subtle hint of alcohol. Flavors and complexity change pleasantly til the end. Very nice.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 ABUSEDGOAT (1937) - California, USA - OCT 26, 2005
Nice brown body with a reasonalbe head and some nice lacing. Initially a very stale aroma like a basement. Some fruits like berry and faint raisins came out though. Some licorice and caramel in the flavor as well. The beer feels off balance, and this musty basement taste has come out some in the flavor. I wanna say this is better than 3/5 but I feel like I’m drinking liquid dust with a nice Belgian beer.

Labeled as "Brown" on my 25.4 oz bottle. Pours a transparent amber-brown with a nice fluffy off-white head. Pleasant mild aroma of malt and dark fruits. Taste is very mild and smooth. Mild dark fruit flavor. Alcohol is well hidden. Nice palate. Worth picking up if you see it on the shelf. Smooth drinking.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Magjayran (1379) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - SEP 11, 2005
Pours dark brown with a thick and lasting tan head. Aroma is extremely subtle in that you can get hints of chocolate and caramel in one sniff and the next might have light fruit notes while the next has some hay and spice. Slightly nutty, chocolatey, fruity, a hint of caramel but all very subtle. Solid beer.
